Detailed answer
Allura was built at Fincantieri's Sestri Ponente yard near Genoa and began its maiden voyage from Trieste in July 2025. It is a sister to Vista, which entered service in 2023. Oceania gives a tonnage of 68,000, a length of 791 feet and 605 suites and staterooms, all with verandas, while Cruise Industry News gives about 1,200 guests. Dining includes The Grand Dining Room, Polo Grill, Aquamar Kitchen, Terrace Café, Jacques for French classics, the Asian-inspired Red Ginger, a Neapolitan pizza trattoria and a Crêperie serving crêpes, waffles and sundaes. Bathrooms have rainforest showers, and the bars offer barrel-aged Negronis and zero-proof cocktails. The port listing gives no expected passenger number for either 2027 call.
How busy will town be?
The upcoming visits listed on this page show the passengers expected on each call and any other ships in port the same day. Town is busiest when several ships are in at once or a large ship arrives at a weekend. A ship carrying a few hundred passengers makes little difference on its own.
Can you sail on it from nearby?
Yes, from Barcelona and Lisbon. The call on Monday 12 April 2027 falls during a 16-night voyage that leaves Miami on Wednesday 31 March 2027 and calls at Bermuda, the Azores, Cadiz, Gibraltar, Motril, Cartagena and Valencia before reaching Barcelona on Friday 16 April 2027; a 23-night version continues along the French and Italian coasts to Rome. The call on Saturday 18 September 2027 is on the seven-night Iberian Experience, which leaves Barcelona on Sunday 12 September 2027 and calls at Valencia, Cartagena, Malaga, Tangier and Cadiz before Gibraltar, ending in Lisbon on Sunday 19 September 2027. Between the two calls Allura sails seven to ten-night voyages around the Mediterranean from Barcelona, Rome, Trieste and Athens. Fares are quoted per person in US dollars.
